The European university alliances challenges and acceleration services solutions

University alliances promoting collaboration and addressing complex challenges in higher education. However, these alliances face several obstacles that must be understood and addressed to maximize their effectiveness. This paper aims to explore existing research on the challenges encountered in university alliances. The review identifies key themes and provides insights into strategies that can help overcome these challenges. By understanding the challenges and potential solutions, universities and policymakers can enhance the effectiveness of alliances and foster fruitful collaborations. As a result, we discuss how all these challenges have an effect on the sustainability of their partnerships and how projects such as aUPaEU can overcome some of these challenges.
